the manager's point of view even and listen sometimes you can't avoid this because you know people come back from tournaments late and stuff but even from his preparation from his point of view trying to even work with a back four he hasn't had one he's been using Kirk just bits and

isn't it really?

You know, young lads to fill in and stuff.

He's not at the senior centre half at his disposal, really, the whole tour, bar seven minutes of Joe Gomez.

And really not many people would want to see Joe start anyway because of where he is with his fitness and stuff.

And, you know, he's probably, you know, his best days are probably well and truly behind him, if we're all honest.

But it is a bit of a problem.

I was doing maybe a gutter maybe two, three weeks ago and I was, I wouldn't say completely relaxed, but I wasn't too bothered.

I thought, well, you know, there's still plenty of time.

Then you can maybe take a breath and go, okay, they're in a decent position.

They can start, you know, plotting their way through now and picking and choosing a little bit.

But because you're into August and they've only really done the one, you know, Jackie was already boxed off.

it just feels like they've fallen behind a little bit.

And if you're going to give this fella the best opportunities to succeed, and he's only signed for two years initially, then fuck all he needs players to be able to choose from.

Yeah, definitely.

It's concerning and it's not ideal, is it?

When you think about the season starts, I think it's in 20 days and you play a Newcastle away, which is, I know they've had a lot of change and now the manager's changed.

It's not the most difficult game.
